HUMMINGBIRD

Oh, hummingbird, mankind was waiting for you to come flying along.
Heavenly songbird we were so wrong, we’ve harmed you.
Oh, hummingbird, lend us your wings, let us soar, in the atmosphere of Abba. 
“Lift us up to the heaven of holiness, oh, source of our being!” Oh, hummingbird.

Hummingbird, don’t fly away, fly away. Hummingbird, don’t fly away, fly away.
In you I found a fragrance, I’ll love you till I die, I just love you, love you, love you,
I don’t even know the reason why.

Hummingbird, don’t fly away, fly away. Hummingbird, don’t fly away, fly away.
The sweetness of your nectar has drawn me like a fly. I just love you, love you, love you,
I don’t even know the reason why. 
Hummingbird don’t fly away, fly  away. Hummingbird, don’t fly away, fly away.

Haven’t you noticed the days somehow keep getting longer
And the spirit voices whisper in us all.
Haven’t you noticed the rays the “Spirit Sun” is stronger
And a “new day” is dawning for us all.

Hummingbird, don’t fly away, fly away. Hummingbird, don’t fly away, fly away.
Alas here comes the Gardener he’s come to till the flowers.                             
The draught of understanding, wisdom, peace and love is ours now!

Hummingbird, don’t fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don’t fly away, fly away.         
Don’t fly away, don’t fly away, don’t fly away, Don’t fly away, don’t fly away, don’t fly away,
Don’t fly away, don’t fly away, don’t fly away, don’t fly away.  (repeat & fade)
